We want to once again send a thank you to Senator Tracy Pennycuick and her team for helping us acquire this grant through the Dept of Community & Economic Development. We are very grateful for the support!

And this grant, along with grants and donations from the American Library Association, Pottstown Regional Community Foundation and the Friends of the Boyertown Library, we will be able to start the ADA upgrades to our bathrooms. Our goal is for everyone to feel comfortable in the library, which includes our commitment to making the space more accessible to all who enter. Anyone who has recently visited their local library knows that it is more than just books, as libraries are becoming a place for communities to gather and to help patrons to learn, grow and thrive through our programs and resources. We are honored to be a part of this community.

We thank each and every one of you for your support year after year and we can't wait to see you at the library!

Two Boyertown organizations have been awarded a combined $100,000 in state funding. 📚 The Boyertown Community Library received $50,000 for facility renovations and ADA improvements, while the General Carl Spaatz National USAAF Museum received $50,000 for facility renovations. The grants were secured by state Sen. Tracy Pennycuick through the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development.
